The American Cheese Society’s sister organization, the American Cheese Education Foundation (ACEF), supports existing and new educational efforts to further educational opportunities for all those interested in producing, marketing, selling, and appreciating North America’s artisan, farmstead, and specialty cheeses.

The AMERICAN CHEESE EDUCATION FOUNDATION is…

A Tax-Deductible Charitable Organization.

The ACEF can receive charitable contributions and tax deductible gifts. This means that anyone—an individual or a business—can make tax deductible donations in support of existing and new educational efforts to enrich the services offered to members of the American Cheese Society and to enhance public education about artisan and specialty cheeses.

Eligible for New Funding Opportunities.

As a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, ACEF is eligible for foundation and federal grants for which the American Cheese Society cannot apply. Access to a greater pool of resources will allow the American Cheese Society to continue to deliver innovative and timely educational opportunities.
